My main Bible is the NRSV, and then the NJB, the REB is probably next inline for my respect of and it's usefulness. I too really like the NEB, but I tend to be a wee bit more conservative in my handling of the Biblical texts and while I enjoy the NEB and have it on preorder, I do prefer the REB. In my opinion the REB not only updates language but corrects some questionable changes that the NEB had introduced, I find the REB poetic, flowing and a wonderful translation for reading.
